Small lizard shot near the city of Pucon, Chile.

"Thin Lizard" was a little bit shy but I managed to get a lizard smile from him.

Encourageons Thin Lizzy.... oups Lizard que dis-je ?
J'aime bien l'effet que la photo donne.
Question: Avais-tu déjà grossi ta photo au max ?

Hi Alexendre!
Your original shot has a lot of potential, but I think the presentation needs more work.
Technically speaking the lizard is sharp and the exposure is good.
Artistically, there is way to improve the visual impact of it.
First the lizard is quite small and almost similar to the forground, so it almost disapeat (we me see that as camouflage), but your goal shoulb be to show the animal.
Second, the white patch in middle top does help. It catching eye attention on it and reduce attention on the lizard.
So for these reasons I would have used a different cropping. Check the WS I did, it's an option, but not the only one. Remember, with computer there is no limit. Frames don't have to be proportionnal to your camera format. You can go square or panoramic. TFS

Contrairement a ce que mets Athila comme commentaire, je trouve que ta façon d'explorer la photo donne plus justice à la petitesse du lézard. J'adore le net du tronc versus le flou de la verture. Parfait!
